Quote of the Day: Mike Masnick

"People don't want to buy mobile phone service from an entertainment company -- especially when it's ultra expensive and has little in the way of features that are actually useful."

- Mike Masnick, the Pundit-in-Chief over at techdirt.com, discussing the all-too-predictable failure of the Disney cellphone service targeted to kids.

Mike echos something that I have also been saying for several years now -- there seems to be this idiotic trend with cellphone MVNOs who try to shove "services" down the consumer's throats, charge them an enormous amount of money for the priviledge, and then wonder why they fail to succeed in the market.
